Description

The present invention relates to novel compounds that activate Kv7 potassium channels. Another aspect of the invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing said compounds and methods of using the compounds to treat diseases responsive to activation of Kv7 potassium channels.

Voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels conduct potassium ions (K ⁺ ) across the cell membrane in response to changes in membrane potential, thereby modulating (increasing or decreasing) the electrical activity of the cell. can control the excitability of Functional Kv channels exist as multimeric structures formed by the association of four α and four β subunits. The α subunit contains six transmembrane regions, a pore-forming loop, and a voltage sensor, arranged symmetrically about the central pore. The β or accessory subunit interacts with the α subunit to modify the properties of the channel complex, including but not limited to changes in the electrophysiological or biophysical properties, expression levels, or expression patterns of the channel. can ask.

A family of nine Kv channel α subunits has been identified, designated Kv1-Kv9. As such, Kv channel function is subject to enormous diversity resulting from numerous subfamilies, the formation of both homologous and heterologous subunits within subfamilies, and the additive effects of association with the β subunit. (Christie, 25 Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology, 1995, 22, 944-951).

The Kv7 channel family includes Kv7.1, Kv7.2, Kv7.3, Kv7.4, Kv7.5 mammalian channels, and any mammalian or non-mammalian equivalents or variants (including splice variants) thereof. consists of at least five members, including one or more of Alternatively, members of this family are referred to by the gene names KCNQ1, KCNQ2, KCNQ3, KCNQ4, and KCNQ5, respectively (Dalby-Brown, et al., Current Topics in Medicinal Chemistry, 2006, 6, 9991023).

As described above, neuronal Kv7 potassium channels play a role in controlling neuronal excitability. Kv7 channels, particularly the Kv7.2/Kv7.3 heterodimer, underlie the M current (Wang et al Science. 1998 Dec 4;282(5395):1890-3). M-currents have characteristic time- and voltage-dependence that lead to stabilization of membrane potential in response to multiple excitatory stimuli.

Thus, M-currents are involved in the control of neuronal excitability (Delmas & Brown, Nature, 2005, 6, 850-862). M-currents are non-inactivating potassium currents found in many neuronal cell types. In each cell type, it dominates control of membrane excitability by being the only sustained current within action potential initiation (Marrion, Annual Review Physiology 1997, 59, 483-504).

Retigabine (N-(2-amino-4-(4-fluorobenzylamino)-phenyl)carbamic acid ethyl ester) is a compound that binds to the Kv7 potassium channel (Wuttke, et al., Molecular Pharmacology, 2005, 67 , 1009-1017). Retigabine activates K ⁺ currents in neurons, and the pharmacology of this evoked current is consistent with the published pharmacology of M channels, which correlates with K ⁺ channel heteromultimers of Kv7.2/3. 2/3 channel activation is responsible for at least part of the anticonvulsant effect of this drug (Wickenden, et al., Molecular Pharmacology 2000, 58, 591- 600). Retigabine is effective in reducing the incidence of seizures in epilepsy patients (Bialer, et al., Epilepsy Research 2002, 51, 31-71). Retigabine has a broad spectrum and strong anticonvulsant action. It is effective after oral and intraperitoneal administration to rats and mice in various anticonvulsant tests (Rostock, et al., Epilepsy Research 1996, 23, 211-223).

The five members of this family differ in their expression patterns. Expression of Kv7.1 is restricted to the heart, peripheral epithelium and smooth muscle, whereas expression of Kv7.2, Kv7.3, Kv7.4 and Kv7.5 is restricted to the hippocampus, cerebral cortex, ventral tegmental area. , and dorsal root ganglion neurons (see for review Greene & Hoshi, Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2017, 74(3), 495-508).

The KCNQ2 and KCNQ3 genes appear to be mutated in a genotype of epilepsy known as benign familial neonatal seizures (Rogawski, Trends in Neurosciences 2000, 23, 393-398). The proteins encoded by the KCNQ2 and KCNQ3 genes are localized in pyramidal neurons of the human cerebral cortex and hippocampus, regions of the brain associated with seizure initiation and propagation (Cooper et al., Proceedings National Academy of Sciences). Science USA 2000, 97, 4914-4919).

Furthermore, in addition to Kv7.2 mRNA, Kv7.3 and 5 mRNA are expressed in astrocytes and glial cells. Thus, Kv7.2, Kv7.3, and Kv7.5 channels may help modulate synaptic activity in the CNS and contribute to the neuroprotective effects of KCNQ channel openers (Noda, et al. , Society for Neuroscience Abstracts 2003, 53.9), which would be suitable for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases such as, but not limited to, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and Huntington's disease.

Kv7.2 and Kv7.3 subunit mRNAs are found in brain regions associated with anxious and emotional behaviors such as depression and bipolar disorder, such as the hippocampus, ventral tegmental region, and amygdala ( Saganich, et al., Journal of Neuroscience 2001, 21, 4609-4624; Friedman et al., Nat Commun. 2016;7:11671.), retigabine is reported to be effective in animal models of anxiety-like behavior. (Korsgaard et al J Pharmacol Exp Ther. 2005 Jul;314(1):282-92. Epub 2005 Apr 6.). Kv7 channels are therefore suitable for the treatment of emotionally related disorders such as, but not limited to, bipolar depression, major depression, anxiety, suicide, panic attacks, social phobia.

Kv7.2/3 channels have also been reported to be upregulated in models of neuropathic pain (Wickenden, et al., Society for Neuroscience Abstracts 2002, 454.7), and potassium channel modulators have been shown to be neuropathic It has been hypothesized to be effective in both sexual pain and epilepsy (Schroder, et al., Neuropharmacology 2001, 40, 888-898). In addition to its role in neuropathic pain, the expression of Kv7.2-5 mRNA in the trigeminal and dorsal root ganglia, and the trigeminal nucleus caudalis suggest that openers of these channels may be involved in the sensory processing of migraine. (Goldstein, et al. Society for Neuroscience Abstracts 2003, 53.8). Taken together, this evidence demonstrates the relevance of KCNQ channel openers for the treatment of chronic pain and neuropathy-related diseases.

WO 07/90409 relates to the use of Kv7 channel openers for the treatment of schizophrenia. Kv7 channel openers are used to modulate the function of the dopaminergic system (Friedman et al., Nat Commun. 2016; Scotty et al J Pharmacol Exp Ther. 2009 Mar;328(3):951-62.doi:10. 1124/jpet.108.146944.Epub 2008 Dec 19;Koyama et al., J Neurophysiol.2006 Aug;96(2):535-43.Epub 2006 Jan 4;Li et al Br J Pharmacol.2017 Dec; 23):4277-4294.doi:10.1111/bph.14026.Epub 2017 Oct 19.;Hansen et al J Pharmacol Exp Ther.2006 Sep;318(3):1006-19.Epub 2006 Jun 14), psychosis , mania, stress-related disorder, acute stress reaction, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, impulsive disorder, personality disorder, schizophrenic disorder, aggression, autism spectrum disorder, etc. suitable for the treatment of psychiatric disorders including, but not limited to: WO 01/96540 discloses the use of regulators of M current formed by expression of the KCNQ2 and KCNQ3 genes for insomnia, and WO 01/092526 discloses Kv7.5. It discloses that modulators can be used to treat sleep disorders. WO 09/015667 discloses the use of Kv7 openers in the treatment of sexual dysfunction.

Patients with the above diseases may have treatment options available, but many of these options lack the desired efficacy and are associated with undesirable side effects. Accordingly, there is an unmet need for new therapeutics to treat the aforementioned diseases.

In an effort to identify new therapeutics, we discovered a series of novel compounds represented by Formula I that act as Kv7.2, Kv7.3, Kv7.4, and Kv7.5 channel openers. compounds were identified. Accordingly, the present invention provides novel compounds as medicaments for treating diseases that are modulated by KCNQ potassium channels.

A general procedure for the synthesis of intermediates and compounds of general formula I is illustrated in Reaction Scheme 1 and illustrated in the Preparations section and Examples. Variations of the described procedures known to those skilled in the art are also included within the scope of the invention.

スキームＩは、２つの一般的経路による一般式Ｉの化合物の調製を示す。第１の経路は、酸及びアミンをアミドに変換するための当該技術分野で周知される方法を介した、一般式ＩＩの鏡像異性的に純粋なアミンと一般式ＩＩＩの酸との反応による、式Ｉの化合物の合成である。この方法は、活性化エステル及び反応性混合無水物が挙げられるがこれらに限定されない式ＩＩＩの酸の反応性誘導体を形成し、続いて一般式ＩＩのアミンと縮合させることを含む。１つのこうした方法は、ジクロロメタンなどの溶媒中で、ＨＡＴＵ（（１－［ビス（ジメチルアミノ）メチレン］－１Ｈ－１，２，３－トリアゾロ［４，５－ｂ］ピリジニウム３－オキシドヘキサフルオロホスフェート）及びＤＩＰＥＡ（ジイソプロピルエチルアミン）などの好適な塩基の存在下で縮合を実施することである。 Compounds of the invention are prepared as illustrated in Scheme 1. Some of the compounds of general formula I contain two chiral carbon atoms and are formed as mixtures of diastereomers. In this case the diastereomers can be separated to give the single stereoisomers Ia and Ib.

Scheme I shows the preparation of compounds of general formula I by two general routes. The first route is by reaction of enantiomerically pure amines of general formula II with acids of general formula III via methods well known in the art for converting acids and amines to amides. Synthesis of compounds of formula I. The method involves forming reactive derivatives of acids of formula III, including but not limited to activated esters and reactive mixed anhydrides, followed by condensation with amines of general formula II. One such method uses HATU ((1-[bis(dimethylamino)methylene]-1H-1,2,3-triazolo[4,5-b]pyridinium 3-oxide hexafluorophosphate ) and a suitable base such as DIPEA (diisopropylethylamine).

Alternatively, when R ² is H, compounds of general formula I can be prepared via a second general route, wherein intermediates of general formula V are dissolved in a suitable solvent such as methanol. with a suitable reducing agent such as _NaBH4 . Intermediates of formula V can be obtained from enantiomerically pure amines of general formula II and carboxylic acids of general formula IV (R=H). This transformation can be accomplished using reaction conditions similar to those described above for condensing II and III to form I.

A variant of this procedure is the direct coupling reaction of chiral amines of general formula II with carboxylic acid esters of general formula IV (R=Me, Et). The reaction is carried out by heating the reactants in a suitable solvent such as toluene at reflux in the presence of a suitable base such as DIPEA and in the presence of a catalytic amount of a suitable catalyst such as DMAP (4-dimethylaminopyridine). It can be implemented by

一般式ＶＩのアルデヒドは、チタン（ＩＶ）イソプロポキシド又は硫酸銅などの乾燥剤の存在下、ジクロロエタンなどの好適な溶媒中で、（Ｒ）－２－メチルプロパン－２－スルフィンアミドと縮合させることができる。形成されたスルフィニルイミンを、ＴＨＦなどの好適な不活性溶媒中で、Ｒ^３ＭｇＢｒによって処理して、対応する置換（Ｒ）－２－メチル－Ｎ－（（Ｓ）－１－アリール－アルキル）プロパン－２－スルフィンアミド（ＶＩＩ）を得て、これを、ＭｅＯＨ中のＨＣｌなどの適切な溶媒中の適切な酸で処理することによって一般式ＩＩの化合物に変換する。 Optically active amines of general formula II can be prepared as outlined in Scheme 2.

An aldehyde of general formula VI is condensed with (R)-2-methylpropane-2-sulfinamide in a suitable solvent such as dichloroethane in the presence of a drying agent such as titanium(IV) isopropoxide or copper sulfate. be able to. The formed sulfinyl imine is treated with R ³ MgBr in a suitable inert solvent such as THF to give the corresponding substituted (R)-2-methyl-N-((S)-1-aryl-alkyl) Propane-2-sulfinamides (VII) are obtained, which are converted to compounds of general formula II by treatment with a suitable acid in a suitable solvent such as HCl in MeOH.

Aldehydes of formula VI used to prepare compounds of the invention are commercially available or can be prepared as described in the literature (e.g. Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 45(18), 3891 -3904; 2002).

本発明の化合物を調製するために用いたケトンは、市販されており、或いは、当業者に既知の方法により調製することもできる。 In one variation of this procedure, chiral amines of formula II can be obtained from aryl ketones via hydride reduction of intermediate sulfinyl imines using reagents such as L-Selectride, as shown in Scheme 3.

The ketones used to prepare the compounds of the invention are either commercially available or can be prepared by methods known to those skilled in the art.

この手順においては、特開２０１７－０９５３６６号公報で説明されるように、グリオキシル酸エステルと（Ｒ）－２－メチルプロパン－２－スルフィンアミドとの縮合反応中に形成されたグリオキシル酸スルフィニルイミンは、ジオキサンなどの好適な溶媒中で、ビス（アセトニトリル）（１，５－シクロオクタジエン）ロジウム（Ｉ）テトラフルオロボラートなどの好適な触媒を用いて、好適に置換されたボロン酸と反応させることができる。得られた中間体ＶＩＩＩを加水分解及び再保護（ｒｅ－ｐｒｏｔｅｃｔｅｄ）すると一般式ＩＸの中間体を得ることができ、これを更に誘導体化して、所望のＲ^３置換基を得ることができる。本発明の化合物においては、ＩＸのカルボン酸エステル基は、ＣｕＩ触媒反応などの条件下、アセトニトリルなどの好適な溶媒中で、ＬＡＨ（水素化リチウムアルミニウム）を用いてヒドロキシメチレンに還元し、また、２，２－ジフルオロ－２－（フルオロスルホニル）酢酸などの好適な試薬を用いてジフルオロメチル化することができる。 Another variant of this procedure, which is particularly suitable for obtaining chiral amines of general formula II, where R ³ is a hydroxymethylene derivative, is outlined in Scheme 4.

In this procedure, as described in JP-A-2017-095366, the sulfinylimine glyoxylate formed during the condensation reaction of glyoxylate with (R)-2-methylpropane-2-sulfinamide is , in a suitable solvent such as dioxane, using a suitable catalyst such as bis(acetonitrile)(1,5-cyclooctadiene)rhodium(I) tetrafluoroborate, with a suitably substituted boronic acid. be able to. The resulting intermediate VIII can be hydrolyzed and re-protected to give intermediates of general formula IX ^, which can be further derivatized to give the desired R3 substituent. In the compounds of the invention, the carboxylic acid ester group of IX is reduced to hydroxymethylene using LAH (lithium aluminum hydride) in a suitable solvent such as acetonitrile under conditions such as a CuI catalyzed reaction, and It can be difluoromethylated using a suitable reagent such as 2,2-difluoro-2-(fluorosulfonyl)acetic acid.

Those skilled in the art will recognize that other transformations are possible from intermediates of general formula IX. The present invention is intended to encompass such alternative transformations.

一般式Ｘのケトンは、例えばＺｎ及びヨウ素によって活性化されたブロモ酢酸のアルキルエステルと反応して対応するアルドール付加物を産生する。代替的な手順においては、ブロモ酢酸エステルは、Ｚｎ及びＴＭＳＣｌ（塩化トリメチルシリル）を用いて活性化することができる。最終工程で、アルキルエステルの加水分解は、水などの適した溶媒中でＮａＯＨ若しくはＬｉＯＨなどの適した塩基、又は水中のアルコールによって処理し、続いて適した酸による酸性化を行い、式ＩＩＩの化合物を得ることによって達成される。 Carboxylic acids of general formula III can be prepared as outlined in Scheme 5.

Ketones of general formula X react with, for example, Zn and iodine activated alkyl esters of bromoacetic acid to produce the corresponding aldol adducts. In an alternative procedure, the bromoacetate can be activated using Zn and TMSCl (trimethylsilyl chloride). In a final step, hydrolysis of the alkyl ester can be accomplished by treatment with a suitable base such as NaOH or LiOH, or an alcohol in water, in a suitable solvent such as water, followed by acidification with a suitable acid to give formula III It is achieved by obtaining a compound.
